Install Steam di Debian

Steam merupakan aplikasi yang library game yang populer dikalangan gamers, dengan makin populernya aplikasi tersebut membuat pihak pengembang mulai melirik platform lain yaitu Linux. Memang tidak semudah saat menggunakannya di Windows, penggunaan di Linux terutama proses installasinya cukup sulit dibeberapa distro linux karena memang tidak disediakan secara langsung pada repository linux tersebut, salah satunya yaitu Debian. Akan tetapi sekarang telah banyak cara yang dapat digunakan untuk menginstallnya di debian, salah satunya yang saya temukan dan telah saya coba yaitu dengan menggunakan bash script berikut:

#!/bin/bash
#
# Steam installer for Debian (32- and 64-bit)
#
# Place into empty directory and run.
#
download() {
local url="$1"
local filename="$(basename "$url")"
if [ ! -f "$filename" ]; then
wget -c "$url" -O "$filename.part"
mv "$filename.part" "$filename"
fi
}
package() {
local url="$1"
local target="$2"
download "$url"
mkdir -p "$target"
ar p "$(basename "$url")" data.tar.gz | tar xz -C "$target"
}
set -e

LD_LIBRARY_PATH="\${STEAMDIR}/compat_libraries/lib/i386-linux-gnu:\${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}"
fi
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
exec "\${STEAMDIR}/steam.sh" "\$@"

cat > "${STEAMDIR}/setup_debian_environment.sh" < if ! which steam > /dev/null 2>&1; then
PATH="${STEAMDIR}/debian_bin:${PATH}"
export PATH
fi
EOF
mkdir -p "${STEAMDIR}/debian_bin"
cat > "${STEAMDIR}/debian_bin/steam" < #!/bin/sh
exec "${STEAMDIR}/steam_on_debian.sh" "$@"
EOF
chmod +x "${STEAMDIR}/debian_bin/steam"
if ! grep -qxF "${MAGIC_LINE}" "${HOME}/.bashrc"; then
echo "$MAGIC_LINE" >> "${HOME}/.bashrc"
echo
echo "Steam was added to your profile. Please relogin or source ~/.bashrc."
echo
fi
echo "To uninstall:"
echo "rm -f everything steamish from ${STEAM_DATA_LOCAL_HOME}/share/"
echo "remove ${MAGIC_LINE} from ${HOME}/.bashrc"

Simpan script di atas dengan nama apapun yang anda inginkan, lalu kemudian ubah hak akses file tersebut menjadi executable agar bisa dijalankan misal:

- $ chmod +x steam.sh
- $ ./steam.sh

Perlu diingat untuk koneksi internet harus tersedia sebelum menjalankannya karena saat pertama kali steam diinstall memerlukan update steam layaknya di windows. Dengan demikian tidak perlu lagi menginstall steam menggunakan wine. Selamat mencoba..
